Prescription History for Informed Healthcare Decisions

When choosing a healthcare provider, especially one who prescribes medications, having access to their prescribing history can be invaluable. This page offers detailed insights into the prescriptions DR. WILLIAM PAUL BAKE D.O. has written for Medicare beneficiaries in the past, empowering both current and prospective patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare.

Why This Information Matters

This Medicare Part D dataset provides transparency into the provider’s prescribing patterns, helping you understand the scope and nature of their pharmaceutical care. Here’s what you can learn:

Prescribing Trends: See which medications—both generic and brand-name—this provider has most frequently prescribed.
Specialization Insights: The types of drugs prescribed can give insight into the provider’s areas of focus or specialization, whether it’s managing chronic conditions, addressing acute illnesses, or providing preventive care.
Cost Awareness: Learn about the total drug costs associated with these prescriptions, which may help you anticipate your own costs and coverage needs.
Patient-Centered Decision Making: Understanding a provider’s prescribing practices helps you align their expertise with your health goals, ensuring the care you receive is consistent with your expectations.

Aimovig Autoinjector

Generic Name: Erenumab-Aooe
Specialty: Neurology
Times Prescribed: 27
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 42
What is this prescription used for?: This medication is used to help prevent migraine. This medication may work by changing the amounts of certain natural substances in the brain. Erenumab belongs to a class of drugs known as monoclonal antibodies. Preventing frequent migraine attacks can help improve your ability to concentrate and do your usual tasks.

Alprazolam

Generic Name: Alprazolam
Specialty: Neurology
Times Prescribed: 16
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 16
What is this prescription?: A triazolobenzodiazepine compound with antianxiety and sedative-hypnotic actions, that is efficacious in the treatment of PANIC DISORDERS, with or without AGORAPHOBIA, and in generalized ANXIETY DISORDERS. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p238)
What is this prescription used for?: Alprazolam is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders. It belongs to a class of medications called benzodiazepines which act on the brain and nerves (central nervous system) to produce a calming effect. It works by enhancing the effects of a certain natural chemical in the body (GABA).

Amantadine

Generic Name: Amantadine Hcl
Specialty: Neurology
Times Prescribed: 41
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 71
What is this prescription?: An antiviral that is used in the prophylactic or symptomatic treatment of influenza A. It is also used as an antiparkinsonian agent, to treat extrapyramidal reactions, and for postherpetic neuralgia. The mechanisms of its effects in movement disorders are not well understood but probably reflect an increase in synthesis and release of dopamine, with perhaps some inhibition of dopamine uptake.
What is this prescription used for?: Amantadine is used to treat Parkinson's disease, as well as side effects caused by drugs (such as drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms), chemicals, and other medical conditions. In these cases, this medication may help to improve your range of motion and ability to exercise. For the treatment of these conditions, amantadine is believed to work by restoring the balance of natural chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain. Amantadine is used to prevent or treat a certain type of flu (influenza A). If you have been infected with the flu, this medication may help make your symptoms less severe and shorten the time it will take you to get better. Taking amantadine if you have been or will be exposed to the flu may help to prevent you from getting the flu. This medication is an antiviral that is believed to work by stopping growth of the flu virus. This medication is not a vaccine. To increase the chance that you will not get the flu, it is important to get a flu shot once a year at the beginning of every flu season, if possible. Based on the recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the US, amantadine should not be used to treat or prevent influenza A because the current influenza A virus in the United States and Canada is resistant to this medication. For more details, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

Amitriptyline Hcl

Generic Name: Amitriptyline Hcl
Specialty: Neurology
Times Prescribed: 139
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 197.3

Atorvastatin Calcium

Generic Name: Atorvastatin Calcium
Specialty: Neurology
Times Prescribed: 26
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 62
What is this prescription?: A pyrrole and heptanoic acid derivative, HYDROXYMETHYLGLUTARYL-COA REDUCTASE INHIBITOR (statin), and ANTICHOLESTEREMIC AGENT that is used to reduce serum levels of LDL-CHOLESTEROL; APOLIPOPROTEIN B; and TRIGLYCERIDES. It is used to increase serum levels of HDL-CHOLESTEROL in the treatment of HYPERLIPIDEMIAS, and for the prevention of CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES in patients with multiple risk factors.
What is this prescription used for?: Atorvastatin is used along with a proper diet to help lower bad cholesterol and fats (such as LDL, triglycerides) and raise good cholesterol (HDL) in the blood. It belongs to a group of drugs known as statins. It works by reducing the amount of cholesterol made by the liver. Lowering bad cholesterol and triglycerides and raising good cholesterol decreases the risk of heart disease and helps prevent strokes and heart attacks. In addition to eating a proper diet (such as a low-cholesterol/low-fat diet), other lifestyle changes that may help this medication work better include exercising, losing weight if overweight, and stopping smoking. Consult your doctor for more details.

Times Prescribed: 13
Number of 30-Day Refills Prescribed: 13

What is this prescription used for?: Azathioprine is used to prevent organ rejection in people who have received a kidney transplant. It is usually taken along with other medications to allow your new kidney to function normally. Azathioprine is also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. In this condition, the body's defense system (immune system) attacks healthy joints. Azathioprine belongs to a class of drugs known as immunosuppressants. It works by weakening the immune system to help your body accept the new kidney as if it were your own (in the case of an organ transplant) or to prevent further damage to your joints (in the case of rheumatoid arthritis). Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of azathioprine, especially when used by children and young adults.
